where do you have the filter slider? as long as it’s not all the way down (and certainly from half-way and up), you should be hearing a significant change when adjusting the upper octave sliders…
i find they’re very sensitive and small changes make a big difference.

it sounds like there may be a problem.

oh, it sounds like it’s working correctly then…

the octaves always go through the filter section.
when the filter is ‘off’, the slider will be all the way UP…
as you bring it down, you are filtering off the treble frequencies, so it makes sense that with the filter slider dialed right down, you won’t hear much in the way of treble, so the upper octaves will be heavily attenuated.

does that make sense?

It is a bit strange, the bypass on the micropog is great imo, if ‘true bypass’ wasn’t such a selling buzzword then we might have been able to have it on all the XO’s, I’d bet it would solve every ‘volume drop’ complaint we ever get on here. IMO high quality well designed output buffers are the way forward but ill-informed consumers demand clunky old noisy mechanical switching instead … :freak:

Yeah, but true-bypass is the magic word the past years of course, everybody only wants true-bypass so it seems..

I don’t care, if a pedal sounds cool switched on, I want it, I don’t hear problems in my effectschain at the moment, but if I will hear it I just use some effects loops and buffer pedals..
